for america's power, and it's a mistake to keep a war going because there's always a chance it could run into another war. >> well, most of your democratic colleagues agree with this sentiment and the voting you're recommending right now. will they vote against the president on this escalation? >> i can't predict that. i'm hopeful that they'll listen to what people are saying back home. because back home, people, where i'm from in cleveland, they're worried about jobs, they're worried about saving their homes, they're worried about their retirement securities, their investments, worried about their pensions, worried about whether they're going to have health care or not. this war, at a point, starts to seem like some grand distraction almost in excess. we have to ask if our leaders are really in touch with the people while there's a separation between the financial economy and the real economy, between wall street and main street. and meanwhile we're talking about a war, expanding it, are you kidding me? >> well, we're at a point where if you have to ask, you can't afford it. congressman
